Learning to PURRRRRRR - Paperback

by Clarissa Wilson Pine (Author), D. a. Hewlett (Author)

Learning to PURRRRRRR is addressed to a general audience of people looking for understanding to improve their lives and outlooks. Specifically within the general audience, the most interested people will be those confused about the fast paced change in our modern times, suffering losses, economic and/or emotional. While encouraging the reader to engage in reflection as an ongoing exercise to improve mental abilities and quality of life, my unique book helps people baffled by globalization, overpopulation, terrorism, the financial crisis and other modern day difficulties, to sort out the influences in the atmosphere on their own using my reflective examples. Without help in clearing the clouds of fog, lacking the certainty of a better future being a result of daily actions, unfortunately many are taking a very short view, which is damaging both to society and the individual. The book is themed on the use of observations from cat behavior, life experiences and a synthesis of philosophical and other reading materials, in drawing helpful life lessons. Other media, such as TV, are also used as examples. In addition to clarity for the reader, other benefits from reflective contemplative thought, or purring as referred to in the book, are healthy relaxation and better ability to problem solve. Using reflection as demonstrated in this book, the reader will be able to establish a solid life code, which helps keep a healthy, loving outlook and boosts self-esteem through increased independence. Alternatively, given the thorough demonstration of the authors' code of supporting the idealistic values in civilization of equality, tolerance, individual responsibility, love and a safety net of support for those who slip through the cracks, while not paying any lip service to the absolute necessity of a competitive pyramid hierarchy civilization structure, the reader could use this code as a starting point for his own continued peaceful information gathering. The book develops the absolute necessity of self-love first, pointing out that loving members of society do not expect others to hurt themselves to prove membership in the culture, and also emphasizes growing in love for others as able. A thorough explanation of factors influencing the ability for people to have varying sizes of love circles is presented as due to mental outlook, physical surroundings, access to survival resources, and other issues centered on approved social permission to expand, and very definitely not a reflection of individual worth. The book also helps to bridge the widening gap between people who adopt religion to help structure their lives and those who do not have strong religious convictions.
